I fired this moderately upgraded Glock 47 side by side with a nearly stock Glock 19.

The Performance Trigger was an interesting upgrade. I was skeptical of how much I'd feel it. It doesn't lighten the pull at all but it is supposed to make it smoother. To my surprise it does this. On a stock trigger I can feel various internal components as the trigger pull moves them, while on the performance trigger I only felt a smooth pull. I didn't even feel hitting the takeup wall which was a little bit of a surprise to my muscle memory in the Glock.

Ergonomically a Glock is a Glock. I have no strong opinions for or against Glock finger grooves as my fingers have always fit into them, but I've never felt I needed them. The slide release remains as low profile and with a worn down face as always, so I pulled the slide on a reload as always. The Glock 47 includes front serrations to help. Not required but nice to ensure a little grippy on the front.

The Holosun had a dot in a circle reticle. It had already been zeroed for 10 yards. Against a 10 yard target my rapid fire mag dump landed all but 3 hits in the center, with the 3 flyers in the 9 ring. Which I will attribute positively to both the improved trigger and the Holosun. The Holosun especially made rapid fire while staying on target much easier.

The Performance Trigger annoys me because it is genuinely a great if unassuming upgrade for Glocks, but it costs $120ish which seems like Glock double dipping against consumers since they could simply make it the new stock trigger. I want to recommend it to non-competitive shooters who aren't looking for a hair trigger competition upgrade, but on the other hand it rewards Glock for its practices. If you find a used gun with one of these triggers already installed, it is a plus though.
